Looks cool although I'm not too sure about the texture.

Hello Pyramid
We need to wait Jacks for approval or maybe he Pm you about this first Uln concept?
you can't be a minister of executive approbation??
*and this ship is not over million poly just less 500 AFTER be triangulate*
(or maybe it was a joke; my english is poor for understanding subtile joke)
but it more easy with uln to made less poly ship

I'd rather not (though privately I have already approved it with my bows )Fendorin wrote:you can't be a minister of executive approbation??
I've sent jackS an email 2 days ago. He's probably very busy since he didn't come back with a reply yet. Let's practice some more Zen of Patience.

Ayup! Sorry for the confusion... I thought the texture made it look very nice, and better than quite a few game models I've seen with awful high poly counts elsewhere without making it overpoly`d for us poor suckers with low end chipsetsPhlogios wrote:Funny looking ship
@Fendorin: He meant that you made a ship with very good textures, and that a ship with good textures can look better than a ship with many polygons.
500 triangles + Fendorin texture =
100,000 triangles + Phlogios texture =

Hopefully we can get the to AI stop the Uln bump and grind tactic as a bump from this bad boy could be fatal.

@Fendorin
I'll do the HUD image, no problem here.
When testing the integration, I had to export from the blender file, since the supplied obj and the wings file were giving problems with textures (no texture shown) probably due to inverted normals, since when zooming in on the ship I could see the textures actually inside the ship.
Further, the shield mesh has no blender file and the supplied obj file doesn't seem to match the size of the ship mesh. See this pic for effect.
Could you please redo the shield mesh or even both to match the sizes.
I also can't see the glow on my win machine (pic above), but this might be due to my GPU only having 3 texture units or some other unknown problem. My test setup just isn't working well in addition to missing new binaries for vegastrike and mesher on windows. Hopefully after test on the latest build on linux all will be smoth.
Also what is the texture that is named "ulnknight_hard.png"?
Integration is approaching...

Fendorin, make sure for every new object in Blender you change the default settings right away, like this:pyramid wrote:... were giving problems with textures (no texture shown) probably due to inverted normals, since when zooming in on the ship I could see the textures actually inside the ship.
- 1- Turn OFF the [Double Sided] button. Otherwise, you can have inverted normals and not know it.
- 2- Turn OFF Auto-Smooth, but max out the angle to 80. Otherwise your renders might show sharp edges where you did not indicate them sharp.
- 3- Add the Edge Split attribute and turn OFF the [From Angles] button.
In Edit Mode, you can click Draw Normals, in the Mesh Tools panel, in F9 towards the right. Each face then has a little blue line coming out. If a face normal is inverted, you'll see just a blue dot in the middle.
To fix the normals, you can hit Ctrl-N to have them fixed automatically; but it doesn't always work. Manually, you can highlight faces that are flipped, then hit W -> Flip Normals.

OK i will check and repost the files
-Knight DivShare File - knight.blend
Normaly you have two mesh inside the blend. file (shield&craft)
and i put the setting like chuck said
and i check the Normal: the little blue stick came to the face for going outside not inside
&
next time say me if you prefer i put the shield in the same .blend files?
and Pyramid the map called Hard is : it's a mistake i forgot to rename the file
i did that for specularity color map
if somebody (Chuck) could help me for that:
the good setting in blender for each map?:
-Specularity( the color of reflexion):set*: spec & Csp? mix
-shininess(the quantity of reflexion):set*: hard? mix
-diffuse/damage: set*: col? mix
-Glow: set*: col & emit? lighten+enable use alpha?
-bump/normal: set*norm? mix down to 0
*SET: means push the button
i am right??
